A method for controlling a washer, includes: based on an initiation of a washing course, selecting, as an initial driving mode, a first driving mode in which a drum rotates in a first direction and controlling a driving motor to rotate the drum in accordance with a first driving mode; obtaining driving data generated as the drum is rotated; based on the driving data, identifying whether an event condition occurs for switching from the first driving mode to a second driving mode in which the drum rotates by a reference angle in a second direction opposite to the first direction and then rotates in the first direction; and based on identifying that the event condition occurs, switching from the first driving mode to a second driving mode and control the driving motor to rotate the drum in accordance with the second driving mode.

Provided are a washing machine abnormal sound detection method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The method includes acquiring target sound data and target vibration data of a to-be-detected washing machine; selecting a matching sound analysis algorithm and a matching vibration analysis algorithm to analyze the target sound data and the target vibration data according to device identification information of the to-be-detected washing machine; determining the position at which an abnormal sound is generated in the to-be-detected washing machine and the cause of the abnormal sound according to the sound data analysis result and the vibration data analysis result.
